Mine we write poems color scheme #21
Cobalt blue carries through, it strikes. Red sums up the feelings of anger. Combined it is the purple of royalty that rushes in with great awry. Felt under the light blue sky. Flash red - yellow of the orange sun, with its heat. It floats here in this universe, set them free. Bursts, splashes and splatters to the foreground. Mixed together, becoming a kaleidoscope of colours.
Blue red yellow green
These colours fly around me
Combined, they are mine

I love colour in poems.
ReplyDeletePamela, you have used color well in this poem...but I would say that no color is predominant, though for me here red has the strongest 'voice.'
ReplyDeletePretty much a primary colour girl, which is probably very appropriate for Mexico!
ReplyDeletePamela, you are like me... love all colors except black, white, brown and navy, LOL. I love this haibun form of poetry.
ReplyDeletePamela, you go girl, you are dancing and splashing all over that canvas. And that last line is soooooooooooo right. Colors don't speak unless we own them,

Thanks Tilly and one of my first poems I wrote was about colours.
ReplyDeletePamela
Thanks Mary and red is a very dominant colour in my belief.
ReplyDeletePamela

great work with the fragmented sentences and prose-like look. you get some really chaotic energy from that.
ReplyDeleteNice post. I am an artist too but love to paint with words.
ReplyDeleteMelanie
Barb, thanks for that.
